I'm wondering what potential piezoelectric effect has for generating electricity for general purpose use in the real world. Piezoelectricity is generated by some materials under mechanical stress. Would it make sense for instance to coat or insulate transmission lines with piezolectric material and then recoup some electricity generated by the wind on the wires? Pyroelectricity is generated by temperature differentials across materials. Would it make sense to make some building materials out of pyroelectric materials. Upon heating or cooling the interior there would be a temperature difference between outside and inside and some electricity could be generated which would recoup some of the energy used. Would this be energy efficient?
